In Brief: Sixx, Videoload, LoungeFM,

June 23, 2013 06.41 Europe/London By Robert Briel

The ProSiebenSat.1 group has now launched HbbTV service with tis female skewed channel Sixx. It is the fourth channel of the broadcaster with an interactive red button service. It offers an EPG, a super text service (called HD-text in German), short video clips on demand, weather, voting, games and integrating with commercials.

Deutsche Telekom’s on-demand portal Videoload has signed a deal with NBCUniversal International TV Distribution to deliver current blockbusters as well as library titles from the Universal Studios for its download-to-own service.

German digital radio station LoungeFM has secured its future by taking cost cutting measures to continue nationwide distribution on the country’s DAB network as part of a private mux.
